when they've had it.

Hello mama.

- I'm sorry to be calling with this news.

- What's wrong?

- It's your father.

He's very ill.

He's been asking for you.

- My name is Ferro Olivetti.

I grew up in Italy, extremely close to my father.

After college, I went to United States

and was very successful in the dot com world.

While my father was impressed with my quick success,

he worried a lot that with the wealth

and the women around me,

I would never discover true love.

Checkmate.

- There is a first time for everything.

- I've beaten you before.

- Ah, maybe I let you win.

- Years ago on one of his visits to America

- I'm proud of your success.

- I owe it to your help and trusting in me, father.

Thank you.

- Always remember, Ferro,

victory is empty without humility, respect, and charity.

- Welcome to Roma.

Please, remain seated with your seatbelt fastened.

- Ferro.

- Ferro.

- Mama.

Mama. - Ferro.

Oh, I'm glad you're here, Ferro.

Doctor say it's matter of hours.

- I'm here papa.

- Bene.

Good.

Good, I.

- You'll be fine, papa.

- I'm glad you came.

I have a last request.

- What papa?

- It will be very hard for you, I know.

- Whatever it is.

- I want you to go far away

for a month with no money.

Don't use your name.

- Why papa?

- Don't ask me.

Promise me, you'll do it for no less than a month.

Don't make any future promises.

- Relax, we'll talk about it later.

- No, no.

No, there's no time.

Promise me.

- I promise you, papa.

- Good.

- Okay.

I love you.

- Yes.

- Lawrence, I must leave for awhile.

- You've only been back for two weeks.

- Yes, I know.

I must go.

- How long will you be gone?

- 30 days.

- What about Dunbar?

- It's gonna be all right.

I'll contact you.

Claude, I need your license.

You take mine.

- Pardon me, sir.

- Your license.

Yeah, give it to me.

- Take the tray for you?

- May I have another serving?

- Oh.

- Watch where you're going.

- Just tell them it's from my father's will.

- Okay.

Listen, there's something else.

Dunbar has been very quiet lately,

but he's promised to fight it on.

I know he's up to something,

but I don't know what it is.

- Goodnight night, Lawrence.

- You took a long time getting back.

I'm celibate.

- Bad choice.

- Who is it?

- It's Mr. Curtis.

- Shit! - Yeah.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, bad choice.

Mr. Curtis.

It's really late.

- No, come sit next to me.

- Right there?

Right here.

- Okay.

Right.

- Right there. - Right there.

- Claude, I'd like to think of you

as more than just an employee.

- That's very kind of you, sir.

- When I take an interest in someone

I like to get to know them...

intimately.

- Oh.

I like you too, sir.

I like your whole family.

In fact, it's such a comfort for a man in my condition

to be in the bosom of such a warm family.

- What condition?

- I'm really having a hard time talking about it,

but...

well, it's not contagious unless you, you know, you--

- We'll talk about this some other time.

- Okay, good night, sir.

No.

- You are not going to be celibate tonight.

- Listen Nancy, please wait, wait, wait, wait,

actually he's not even that, I'm impotent.

- Leave it to me I'll cure you that.

- No, no, the only thing you can do right now is just leave,

okay?

Just leave.

- Nobody throws me out of bed,

especially not the help.

You'll pay for this.

- I guess I can live with that.

- You arrogant bastard.

- Good night.

Okay.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey puppy.

- Listen Claude, about last night.

- I have no idea what you're talking about.

- Good.

Get back to the house. - Yes, sir.

- What?

- Wait, I've gotta go I'll call you later.

C Curtis Realty.

- Could I live there with him?

because I-- - Hey.

Wow, you really blew him off, huh?

- I heard you rented the Broderick penthouse.

- Yep.

- That's six apartments this week.

- It was a good week,

and that creep takes most of it.

- Oh my God, I think I'm in love.

Did you see him?

- Oh, I know.

- Woof!

C Curtis Realty.

- Jennifer. - No, it's Diane.

- Diane listen, I forgot my briefcase,

it's on the desk,

bring it on to the house, pront.

- But-- - But, the only but

I wanna hear from you is your butt in the taxi, comprendo?

- I have to go to a funeral this afternoon.

- You can go from here.

- Hello?

Hello, earth to Claude,

it's me Kat, remember?

- Yeah.

- Claude.

Claude!

- Don't shout, dearest.

Claude was just helping me with my begonias.

- Yeah, he'll take care of your begonias later.

Take her, she knows where.

- My pleasure, sir.

Just give me one minute I'm gonna get my jacket.

- Do you mind keeping your eyes on the road?

- I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about what happened at your friend's place.

- I was more than a bit surprised to see you at the office.

- So was I.

Did you like the flowers?

- They were from you?

- It's the least I could do.

I know I scared you.

- You certainly did.

- Am I forgiven?

- I'm Diane.

- I'm Claude.

So where are we going?

- To a funeral.

- Funeral, who died?

- Some miserable old relative.

- I have an idea.

- What?

- Can I come with you?

- Are you're kidding?

- No, I'm dressed for it.

- What about Curtis?

- I guess I can have a flat.

- Hey listen, Diane, can I buy you a cup of coffee?

That's all I can afford right now.

- Sure.

There's one good thing about this funeral.

- What?

- The cheaper the funeral, the faster it goes.

And boy, this guy was cheap.

- Welcome.

Welcome dear bereaved friends.

We are gathered here today to celebrate the life

not mourn the death of...

- Silvio Kartorini.

- Yes, not mourn the death of Silvio Katorini.

He's joining his beloved wife who died here last year.

Well not here, she...

She died last year

and she was well worth her weight in gold.

- Come on guys.

- Come on, man.

- There, there, he's in a better place.

- You don't look like a chauffeur.

You're a little mysterious.

Are you running from the law?

- No, I never had any trouble with the law

until I got here.

- What happened?

- Mh, it's a long story.

Tell me about you.

- That is even a longer story.

I grew up, I was an only child and I was very sheltered.

- Me too. - You were sheltered?

- No, I was an only child.

I'm sorry, go ahead.

- Are you married?

- No, I love my fun and freedom too much.

You know I don't think I'm gonna fit

into your fun and freedom,

so I think ii should just-- - Whoa, whoa,

wait, wait, wait, wait, what did I say?

- finish it. - Did I say something wrong?

Okay, let's start over.

This is our first date. - This is not a date.

- Okay, you said it so harsh, so emphatically,

what's wrong with the date?

- Nothing, I guess.

I just, I haven't been on a date like over a year.

- And why is that?

- My husband died in the Iraqi war.

- I'm sorry.

How long you guys were married?

- Nine years. - Nine years.

Maybe it's time for now to, I don't know,

start going out a little bit,

just a little tiny, tiny bit.

- I don't know why I feel comfortable talking

to you about myself.

- I'm glad you feel that way.

- I don't wanna get into it,

but there's another reason why I was forced

to live back with my parents after David died,

but it is a hell living back with my parents.

The pressure never stops.

- I'm keeping my mouth shut, look.

- No, I like your concern.

- So we got almost like two or three hours this time.

I mean if.

- I don know why I'm talking to you about myself.

- I am glad we ran into each other,

even if this is not a date. - Me too.

- Anything else? - No, thanks.

- Can you believe we've been sitting here

for over two hours?

- I believe it.

- She believes it.

- How long have you been working with Curtis?

- Three years. - Three years.

What do you think of him?

- Confidentially, I think he's a miserable person.

I'm looking for another agency.

How about you?

- Oh, I think they're screwiest people I ever heard of,

let alone met.

- Can I lend you some money until your next paycheck?

- No thanks, I'll be okay.

I appreciate it.

So...

- Who is she with? - I don't know.

- Who is that?

- Tuesday is my day off.

Can I see you?

- Tuesday is a date.

- Who is that?

- Claude.

He drives for Curtis.

- You've gotta be joking.

You won't give the time of day to a man, like Stanley

who's been after you for months,

but you have no trouble kissing the chauffeur.

- I don't care what he does for a living.

He's a really nice man.

I like him.

Were you spying on me?

- Will you say something, dear, why do I, oh.

- No, no spying.

She asked.

- All right.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I know he thinks it's too much,

I think it's too little.

No, you tell him,

that's what I pay you for.

Just a second.

Here, check out these apartments for tomorrow.

I have Plans, tomorrow is my day off, Mr. Curtis.

- Change your plans, huh?

We'll just tell them that.

No.

Well, it's not possible.

That's cute.

- Hey, you have to work.

Dont, uh...

Don't distract yourself with the windows.

- I'm sorry that you have

to spend your day off like this.

- It was hard enough getting you to say yes to a date.

- Let's get a cab.

- Wait, it's only seven blocks.

Put it on the bosses' expense account.

Hey. - Hey.

- Wanted to me, sir?

- How dare you!

- Dare what?

- Nancy told me everything.

- Told you what?

- You went to her bedroom.

- That's not true.

- Oh my peaches is lying, right?

- Yes. - Get outta here you sick bum.

You're fired. - I'm fired?

- You're fired! - I quit.

Wait a-- - Nothing!

Get out!

- Please Mr. Curtis, why do you have to talk like that?

- Don't tell me how that talk you moron.

- You know what, Mr. Curtis?

You can go fuck yourself.

- Oh.

- Wow.

- Shut up!

- I can't believe you did that,

that was fabulous.

- Let's just get outta here.

- Okay.

- I still don't know what happened.

- His peaches' memory is fuzzy.

She came on to me.

- Well, you came on to me.

- First of all, she isn't you.

She's a little kid.

Secondly, I had a witness.

- Who?

- I was tempted to tell him.

- What?

- You really wanna know?

- His wife was under my bed.

- You're kidding.

- No, and there is more.

The daughter is in the closet,

and he tries to hit on me.

- You're telling me he's gay.

- I don't know, maybe AC/DC, not outted yet.

- How did you get rid of him?

- I told him that I have a communicable disease.

- That's why he called you a sick bum.

- Yep, yep.

And wanna know some more?

- What?

- The dog tried to hump my leg.

Is that a sick family or what?

- Do you like his wife?

- She's okay.

So what are we gonna do now?

- You need a place to stay.

Do you have any money?

- Yeah, oh yeah, I got paid.

- Would it scare you if I asked you to have dinner

at my parents' house?

- No, it sounds great.

- So where do you live?

- California.

- So what are you doing in New York?

- Looking for a job now.

- Driving a car?

- Dad?

- It's okay, it's okay.

The truth is I just got fired today,

and I'm afraid I cost Diane her job too.

- What?

- I wanted a new job, anyway, dad.

Curtis was a pig. Besides I'll find a better job,

don't worry.

- Don't worry?

Okay, I won't worry.

- Can I talk to you? Excuse me.

Look, listen, this is the first time since David

that I've really liked somebody,

please don't ruin it for me.

- Well, how old is he?

- 32, what does it matter?

- 32, doesn't have a job.

Let alone a career and you're...

Let's go back.

- Probably a lapsed Catholic.

- God, just go back just be nice.

- Do you intend to stay in New York?

- No, I think I'll do much better in California.

- You're leaving New York, Claude?

- Oh, not for awhile.

- A man has to be where he can do the best for himself.

- Well, thank you. We have to go.

- Thank you.

Thank you.

- You like my pasta?

- Oh, you out did yourself.

- It was good tonight, huh?

- He's got good manners, you know.

- He acted like he hadn't eaten in a month.

- Who knows?

- No one knows.

- Oh, I wish I could live on my own again.

- Why can't you?

- Not now, it's a very long story.

- Okay.

Hey, what do we do about job?

- A job?

Let's look together.

- Hey, can I have yours I don't like nuts.

- You're not gonna believe this.

- What?

- We both got fired today.

- What the hell happened?

- Curtis's daughter accused Claude of going

into her room.

- Yeah, yeah, that figures.

- No, it's not like that.

I don't think he did it.

- Yeah, yeah, I'm sure.

- Wait, are you seeing this guy?

- Sorta.

- You're nuts.

- Well, I'm tired,

I'm gonna go to bed.

I'll talk to you tomorrow.

Bye.

- Hey, what are you doing up so early?

- I'm sorry you were fired.

- It's okay.

- We both know.

You know what? Take this.

- What is it?

- Severance.

- Thank you.

- You got a place to stay?

- Yeah.

- Keep in touch.

- They spent the entire night trying

to convince me never to see you again.

- I'm glad you didn't agree.

- You know, there's something I've been thinking

about a lot, particularly last night.

- What?

- Why don't we open our own agency?

Why the hell not?

I've saved up a lot of money,

and I have excellent credit.

What?

- Nothing, I'm, wow, you're willing

to risk all your savings.

- If you'll be my partner.

- What's your plan.

- We'll probably get some concessions on the rent.

We'll charge half commission

and this way we'll attract good agents,

and the tenants will be better off.

And all we need are some desks, and some telephones,

and some money to run some ads, and we'll be in business.

- You're something else.

Can you get listings?

- Yes.

- I have an idea.

Let's get the three agents you used to work with.

Offer each one of them 15% of the company.

We'll keep control with 55%.

How about that?

- That'll give Curtis a heart attack.

- Yep.

- Can this really happen?

- You can make it happen.

- Let's celebrate, tonight.

It'll be on me.

- Sounds good to me.

Cameriere, champagne, lobster,

and!

It's on her.

* When we two were near I knew... *

- What's this?

- I'm not much of a drinker.

I'll probably be drunk with the first three sips.

- That's good.

Salute.

- This is delicious.

What is this? - Whiskey sour.

- I never knew a drink tastes so good,

I love it.

- Keep drinking it.

- This is so exciting.

What are we gonna call our business?

- I don't know.

- Reno and Mancini limited.

- Mancini and Reno, I'm the one financing the company.

- Okay, Mancini and Reno it is.

- You know, I really appreciate the fact

that you're making me a partner.

Thank you.

Wanna dance?

* When we two were near

* I knew my love was here

* But his words were sweet and kind *

* And his love gave peace of mind *

* And the way he kissed and cared *

* I believed every word he said *

What?

I think I'm falling in love with you.

- I think you're drunk.

- Diane, I never met anyone like you.

This is a change for me,

a great, wonderful change.

- I can't, I can't.

I'm sorry.

- Why can't you?

- I don't wanna talk about it.

- I wish you'd tell me.

You can trust me just tell me.

- All right, well, after, you know, I found out David died,

I just can't explain it.

I just felt numb.

And I wanted to know if he said anything before he died.

So I made like dozens of calls,

and finally I found someone who said he was there

when he got shot.

- Come on in.

- So what happened?

- Something terrible I can't talk about it.

- What happened to that guy?

- Well, he got off scot-free,

and it turned out he wasn't even there

when David died.

He'd been kicked out for drugs,

and then I found out he overdosed and died.

I still, I really hate talking about it.

- I'm very sorry.

It's okay.

Come.

It's okay, it's okay.

- Do you know how much money we've netted so far?

- How much?

- Over $12,000. - $12,000?

- Yeah, our business has been doubling every day.

- Well, if that up we'll be richer

than a Rockefeller in a month.

Don't laugh.

Let me ask you something.

What if you only had one penny,

and you double that penny each day for 40 days?

What if I told you he would come to over 10 billion,

but not 10 billion pennies, $10 billion.

- Get outta here. - I'm telling the truth.

Incidentally, what do your parents think

about your business?

- They would go crazy if they knew I invested everything,

especially with you.

- Just keep assuring them I'll be gone soon.

- I really don't like thinking about that.

What if we opened up a branch in California?

- What about the business you just open here?

- That's a diplomatic answer.

It's not exactly the one I wanted to hear.

- Hey, little puppy.

Hey puppy, puppy, puppy.

- Wait right here I'm gonna be back in one minute.

- Okay, I won't move.

- Lawrence, it's Ferro.

- I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news

but Dunbar has made a serious move to take control

of Olivetti Enterprises.

He made a tender offer of $65 a share.

- Okay, counter it with $70 a share

and knock the son of a bitch out.

- If it's not too late.

The judge was very angry when you didn't show

up the last time.

- The same judge? - Yes.

Jesus Ferro, it comes down to this,

if you show up you win.

If not, you lose control of Ferro Olivetti Enterprises.

- Hey, I gotta call you back.

- Where are my anti-acids?

- You got off the phone quickly.

- A gift?

- It's a little memento from New York.

- Thank you.

That's so close, it's incredible!

- I can't stand thinking about you leaving.

- If you know all about me you wouldn't want me to stay.

- I know you better than you think I do.

I love you, Claude.

- Your client has been very elusive thus far.

I expect I'm here 9:00 AM Monday.

- This Monday? - Yes.

- Would your honor consider next Monday?

- Well, maybe you didn't hear me.

I said this Monday.

Next case.

- How did it go?

- Judge Franklin wants to see you in court

on Monday at 9:00 AM.

- Is there any way we can postpone it?

- No, we tried.

I told you, you show up you win,

you don't show up you lose control of your company.

- Then I guess you have to take Claude as me to court.

- What? That's crazy.

That's too dangerous.

We could wind up in jail.

- Just make sure you do all the talking.

Listen, I gotta go.

I'll call you back.

- Hello.

- Lawrence, I think your home phone is bugged.

Do not use your home phone use your cell phone.

Okay?

Hey, can I talk to you later?

- Yeah, I can take a hint.

- Yeah.

- You were right, the bastards bugged my phone.

- You sure?

- Yeah, I'm holding it.

- Okay, send the plane to LaGuardia at 2 AM.

- Now you're talking.

They're gonna think it's not you in court.

- Chair is still empty.

Where's your client?

- Ah, your honor, my client has,

he's been unavoidably detained.

- I'm afraid we can't wait any longer.

I'm sorry, counselor, by the absence of your client

I have no choice but to decide

for Mr. Dunbar by default.

- Your honor, please.

- Your honor we believe that the person standing

before you is an imposter,

and not Mr. Olivetti.

- This is a very serious accusation.

Are you Ferro Olivetti?

- Yes, your honor.

- You have proof of identity?

- Of course, your honor.

- Bailiff?

Show this to Mr. Dunbar's attorney, please.

Thank you.

- We apologize, your honor.

- You should save your apology for Mr. Olivetti.

Well, it's been quite a morning counselor,

but things are looking up.

Congratulations, case dismissed.

- Both of these are in this-

Oh, excuse me.

- Hey.

- Where have you been all day?

- I can't tell you.

- I'm sick of all these secrets.

- Just trust me, please.

Okay?

- Sorry about that.

So yes, this one is literally two blocks,

and you can look at the outside of it,

and then one more block.

Yeah, so look at them and call me,

and let me know if you like this one.

- Yeah.

- So, you know, a couple blocks from here.

- You may as well.

- Yeah, just two down.

- What are you doing here? - Hi baby,

come on you know I

- No, no, no, no. - What's the matter?

What is the matter? - No.

- What is the matter? - No, no, no.

- What is-- - Diane, wait.

Diane wait, wait.

Diane wait.

Let me explain. - I hate you.

- Wait, wait. - I hate you.

- Hello.

- Mrs. Mancini, this is Fer...

This is Claude.

Is Diane home?

- Ooh, God.

- Who was that?

- Oh, it's just a-- - Are you all right?

- No, it was just an irritating sales pitch.

That's what it was.

- Hi, Mrs Mancini, it's me again.

Maybe we've got dis--

- Hello? - Hello, Mrs. Mancini

please don't hang up.

Don't hang up, please.

Listen, there's been a big misunderstanding with Diane.

I need to speak to her.

It's very important.

I'm going back to California.

- Now look, Mr. Reno, how many times must you be told

that my daughter does not wanna talk to you,

hear from you, or see you ever again?

So please, will you stop harassing us?

- Did anyone call?

- Oh no.

That was Stanley from Poughkeepsie.

I've asked him to help us with our taxes.

- Hey.

- He's gone for good, isn't he?

- He asked me to say goodbye.

- Did he leave a number?

- No.

- Yeah?

- Sorry to bother you do you remember Claude Reno

who worked for you?

- What happened to him?

- Look at this.

- I just got this $50,000 check

from him in this letter,

but he signed it Ferro Olivetti.

- He said he worked for him.

- The billionaire? - Yeah.

- I miss him terribly.

- Me too.

It's very lonely without him.

- His last wish taught me a lot.

He was very wise.

- I know.

- And to top it all I met someone.

Someone so different from anyone I ever met before.

- Is she with you?

- I think I lost her.

- I have never known you to be a quitter.

Go to her.

- Okay.

- Now, how do you say get lost in Italian?

- Mrs, Mancini, please, I need to speak to Diane, please.

- Diane. - My God, Claude.

Why didn't you call me?

I did.

I did call you many times.

Diane, I need to speak to you, please.

- When are you leaving?

- Today.

- Can I visit you in California sometime?

- I have an idea.

- What?

- Come with me.

- Oh my God, I can't believe you just said that.

- I hate to see your parents expression

when you tell them.

- I know how I feel.

I just wanna be near you.

- What about the business?

- Just, let's give our shares to our agents.

- That's why you can't save any money.

Anything you don't spend you're giving away.

- You should think about it more carefully.

- Why don't you go next week?

- Next week!

- What if he asks you?

- Asks me what?

- To marry him?

- Oh, don't worry mom.

He's a free spirit.

He has no intentions of being held down by marriage.

- Oh, well I.

- Don't forget your promise, no more secrets.

- Okay.

Anything to drink?

- A dry martini and a whiskey sour.

- Thank you.

- Bye.

- Goodbye. - Bye.

- Good afternoon, Mr. Olivetti.

- Good to see you, Claude.

Diane Mancini, Claude Reno.

- Madam.

- How do you do?

- I'm Ferro Olivetti.

- You mean the Ferro Olivetti-- - Yes, yes.

- You're crazy.

Oh my God, Claude. - Ferro.

- What in the world are you talking about?

Why didn't you tell me?

What the hell were you doing in New York?

- I'm sorry.

When we met I told you it was a long story.

I wish I could explain it then but

I couldn't.

- It all started with my father's will.

Hello, Barbara.

- Hi, how are you?

- Ah, give me a hug

Barbara, this is Diane Mancini.

- Hi, nice to meet you, Ms. Diane.

- This place is amazing.

- Come.

- I'll show you around.

- Oh my God, I can't believe this.

- You like it?

- Yeah.

This is all really wonderful,

but I've just started thinking about a job.

- I have an idea.

- What, we open an agency here?

- Not exactly.

Maybe.

- Then what?

- I'll tell you later.

- That's not fair, tell me your idea.

- Before I met you,

every other day I used to think I loved another woman.

Now I know that you're the only woman I ever loved.

- That's the first time you've ever said that.

- It's the first time I meant it,

and you know what?

- What?

- In New York you made me a full partner

with everything you had,

so now my idea is that here in California I'm asking you

to be my partner with everything I have.

- Is that your way of proposing?

- Yes.

Will you please marry me?

- You may now kiss the bride.

I now pronounce you, Mr and Mrs. Ferro Olivetti.

- Bravo.

- Congratulations.

- Bravo, bravo!
